Office Hours
a coast-to-coast educational series presented by
Welcome to Office Hours, an educational series with a rotating roster of industry guest speakers. This series is a joint project of The Rising Artist Foundation and United Musicians and Allied Workers to present honest information on how to navigate the music industry. For independent and emerging artists without a thoughtful team, this knowledge is hard to find and often harder to understand. We hope to bridge that gap and help working artists thrive.
Join us in March for a three part series called Go Book Yourself.
Presented by Marina Aguerre from The Witching Hours, an independent booking company based in Los Angeles dedicated to introducing emerging artists from around the globe, and uplifting marginalized voices in the celestial music realms.
